Application management using the local interface
The update downloading procedure can be divided into the following steps:
1. Kaspersky Anti-Virus checks connection to the network and establishes
connection with the source of updates.
2. The application obtains a list of updates and information on their size
from the Kaspersky Lab update servers.
3. The program compares the status of the anti-virus database and the
application modules on your computer with those located at the update
source. If your computer has the latest version of the anti-virus
databases the updating process will be complete. Otherwise files will
start being copied to your computer.
The downloading progress is displayed using the copying process
indicator. The size of the received updates is indicated in the Updates
downloaded field.
4. The program automatically connects downloaded anti-virus database. If
the database is connected successfully, Kaspersky Anti-Virus will start
using the database to scan the computer. If the new anti-virus database
connection results in an error, the database will be automatically rolled
back to the previous version.
In order to ensure correct connection of the received updates you may
need to reboot your computer. In this case, a corresponding warning
will be displayed.
